What a blessed day in our services yesterday. It was a delight to recognize our senior adults in the morning services (they do not listen very well! LOL!). Congratulations to Oscar Petersen (92) and Miss Kittie Camp (88) for being the oldest man and woman present in our 10:30AM service.
Our praise band did a very nice job of leading us in worship during the evening service. Zach Huhn did a nice job of sharing about his mission trip experiences. Several folks asked me about the possibility of our praise band being used more often in our services. Thanks to these guys/girls for being obedient.
Of course, the big news of the day/nigh was the resignation of our Minister to Students, Bro. Chris Taylor. He and his family will be taking a sabbatical of probably one year’s duration. They strongly feel this is the Lord’s leading in their life. So, Bro. Chris will preaching in our morning services on May 15 as we honor the class of 2015 and we will then have a fellowship for him, Nicole, Truett & Tag following our evening service that Sunday. He has served in his present capacity for seven years and three months. We wish him and his family well in the years ahead. Bro. Chris is a great guy!
Gary Huhn will be having a heart cath this morning.
Miss Kathleen Henderson will be having surgery this morning.
Courtney Cavin’s dad, Calvin Crist, was taken to UAB yesterday. He continued to have some problems so his wife just decided to take him to the emergency room there. I have not heard from Courtney this morning to know the outcome of that visit.
Eddie Albritton sees the doctor tomorrow to hopefully find out why his hip is bothering him so much.
